Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 box (15.25 oz) cake mix (any flavor)
- 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed
- 1 large egg
Coating
- ½ cup powdered sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, thawed Cool Whip, and egg. Stir until the mixture forms a sticky dough that is fully incorporated and smooth.
- Prepare Sugar Coating: Pour the powdered sugar into a small bowl. Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the sticky dough and roll each into a ball, then roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar until it is completely coated.
- Arrange Cookies: Place the sugar-coated dough balls evenly spaced about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet to give them room to spread during baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and edges begin to turn a light golden color.
- Cool Cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to firm up, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Any cake mix flavor can be used for varied cookie flavors.
- Ensure the Cool Whip is fully thawed for easy mixing.
- Do not overbake to maintain the soft and fluffy texture.
- Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Rolling the dough balls well in powdered sugar helps create a beautiful crackled finish.
